  1. obviously their offer was not as good as the lions........if you can't figure that out yourself, your worse off then even i thought..........

    277753[/snapback]

     

    Oh really? What was the offer? Did the Bills even offer him a contract? Do you know? What were the differences between the two contracts that made him sign with Detroit? What were the intangibles that made Detroit more appealing? Have you spoken to Demulling? Have you read anything about the facts of the matter? Are you making suppositions without facts again?

     

    If you're going to say the Bills lowballed him, you damn well better know the details or else you look like a fool. The look of a fool is creeping up on you.

  2. and i think it's kinda pathetic that you guys can't admit that perhaps he made the wrong move here...........much like he made a wrong move by ignoring kendall last off-season, which would have addressed this need to begin with.........but here we are, still a need at LG, and you guys still making excuses for why he hasn't addressed it........

    Read my post again. Please.

     

    And what did the bills offer Demulling? How long was the contract for? For what dollars?

  3. i disagree with not signing demulling.....spin it any way you want, but i find it amazing that so many on this board support this non-move by TD.......i think he screwed up here, but you guys are so blinded in defending him that you won't even consider that maybe he didn't make the right move.......

    I'm not happy about our OL situation at this point, however you are so blinded by your opinion (a WRONG opinion for that matter) of TD that you grasp at any straw to dis him. It's kinda pathetic, bud.

  4. the lions didn't overpay like many on this board said they would.........they gave him a fair deal and got their man.......the bills lowballed and ended up with nothing........bad move, but i don't expect many here on this board to admit it.........

    So how much did the Bills offer him? How was the contract structured? Do you have this information or are you making it up?

  5. I began my St. Patrick's day celebration earlier this evening, and hope to carry it through for the next 36 hours or so.

     

    Who else is pretending to be Irish?  :w00t:

    St. Patrick's day is one of the most useless holidays of the year.

  6. Am I the only one here who agrees with his post?  Yeah sure he's doom and gloom all the time, but he does bring up some good points.  Who's left that we can sign that's worth a damn for the left side of the line?  I'm sorry but J.P is going to take a beating if it's anyone on our roster now taking Jonas' place.

     

    The Bills have not improved this offseason.  We don't even have a first round pick.

    Just when I thought you were starting to mellow with age like fine wine .....

     

     

    Do you mean to say we're DOOOOOMEEED?

  7. I want to get an authentic Sabres jersey but don't know what player to get. Any suggestions? I want someone who is good and should be with the team for a while. I've been away from hockey for a while so have no idea.

     

    Help anyone?  ;)

    276780[/snapback]

     

    Hockey has been away for a while, as well. I'd hold off on the jersey for now. :-)

  8. 1. working any time of the day sucks!

    2. Not everything in life is about money.

    3. Keep trying, you'll get better.

    276749[/snapback]

     

    1. I like working.

    2. I like to eat and pay my mortgate. These things require money.

    3. I'm 36 and am in a satisfying career.

     

    Thanks, tho.

     

    Oh yeah, and everything nodnarb said is true. Journalism is completely dead.

  9. Many posters here are highly skilled at writing. I don't include myself in that group, but many of TSWallers write better than some guys that write for major newspapers. I for one, consider getting paid for writing about sports a dream job. Even if it wasn't about the Bills. Some of you younger guys should really consider getting into journalism as a profession.

    That's what I went to school for. Obviously, that's not what I'm doing.

     

    1. The hours suck.

    2. The pay sucks.

    3. I'm not good enough.

  10. Start smoking dope.

     

     

    Okay, here's the deal.....

     

    I'm tired of having to drink 3-4 beers or these Bacardi cooler things in order to get a half decent buzz. On the other hand, I cannot stand the taste of alcohol. So I need some help finding an alcoholic beverage that 1) packs more of a punch than beer, 2) does a good job of covering up the alchohol taste, and 3) is 'manly' enough to order when I'm out. 

     

    Now that I'm single again, I want to start easing back into the social scene. I'm typically pretty reserved until I get a drink or two in me, so this is where I need your guys' help. (Of course, too much alcohol in my system and I start pissing in bathtubs and getting into arguments with parked cars  <_<  ) 

     

    Any ideas?

  11. i have given him credit for these moves (as well as moorman)........i just hope i can give him credit for getting nate signed as well but based on his handling of the JJ and AW situations i have little faith he can get it done.......

    I'm happy with the Jonas situation. He was way, way overpaid. He got paid like a near pro-bowl OL. He's not. He's good, and that's it.

     

    PW was the one we probably could have signed, but he was asking for a SB that wasn't worth it for an aging DL, especially considering we have Sam Adams, who is way better than PW.

     

    Winfield was overpaid by the Vikes. Way overpaid. That's one you can't argue.

  12. just hope that you never have to sell.

     

    once you buy that affordable home in WNY that it will only go down in value in the future.

    274928[/snapback]

     

    Not true at all. I live in Brighton (suburb of Rochester) and our house was just apparised for 45% more than when we bought it 3 years ago. That's not a bad little increase, wouldn't you say?

     

    This isn't a big house, either. It's a 75 year-old tudor in a nice neighborhood.

  13. or perhaps the bills could treat him fair and not lowball him at all, giving him both a deal early and for a price that he would receive on the open market?

     

    that is what teams do to retain their best, young talent.......

     

    example:

    Bills do it as well. Examples: Schoebel and Moulds. I know you think the Bills don't resign their own players, but actual facts don't support your perceptions.

  14. Nice! Great letter.

    My name is Matt Kabel and I help run the Buffalo Bills Backers in New York City. We have over 900 members, most of which are ex-patriates from Western New York. I have been following the budget crisis in Erie County, and have been updating our members. Today I updated them on the story that the two of you approached the Buffalo Bills about the money Erie owes them for the lease. How dare you take it upon yourself to make a move such as this that would affect million plus Bills fans in Western New York and around the country. You politicians have almost destroyed WNY with your corruption, and its now boiled over. Leave the Buffalo Bills out of this. They are tops among the organizations that have kept the community strong, unlike the politicians such as yourselves. You want to save money? Cut out the kickbacks and patronage, at least then the city will have a chance to rebound.

  15. Raiders | Burgess Landed With Five-year Pact - from www.KFFL.com

    Sat, 12 Mar 2005 15:16:57 -0800

     

    ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli reports the Oakland Raiders have reached a contract agreement with free agent DE Derrick Burgess (Eagles) on a five-year, $17.5 million deal. The contract includes a $6 million signing bonus.

    I thought they were already over the top w/ moss/woodson, etc

    272851[/snapback]

     

    Well, only the top 52 or 53 players count against the cap at this point. You can have 70 players signed, but only the top 52 or 53 count. It certainly makes it easier when you have a ton of people signed that have low 2005 cap numbers. Of course they'll be screwed in the future.

  16. Thats a big bust Id like to have! Ohh.....wait...... :P  0:)

     

    How about Brown for the league minimum?

     

    How about Hovan for the same?

    Who would you cut to have them on your team? Let's consider that before we blab about signing everyone who'se name you recognize.
